The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) has welcomed four-year-old female cheetah Domino to Edinburgh Zoo from Zoo de Cerza, France.
Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity will soon start to introduce Domino to the zoo's male cheetah, Billy.
They will live separately at first and gradually be introduced over the coming weeks with the hopes they will one day have cubs.
